"At just 50 cents each, these durable blocks integrate electronics directly into the structure, empowering users—even those without engineering expertise—to rapidly design functional and interactive devices. " - sounds like Lego

Or he is a narcissist and never thinks he will be judged by anyone in or outside court?

yeah, weird, i know

The islands are still on the same plate, so they are still on the same continent.

The EU one has camo painted seas, so I needed several seconds for my understanding of “what is where” kicked in. I wonder how they got this stupid idea

Read the comment. EU - maybe, but not the Europe,how do you leave a continent?

It doesn’t count as those are not people!

“I’m not starting wars, I’m ending them!”

The conditions were created by a Brazilian building contractor. It was not the factory environment, but the construction project environment.

Fell good

I was thinking that I could as well live in Germany, until this moment. Seriously.

About the craziness - yes absolutely. In most other places, you use a thing until nobody would use it, or sell it online. And here, people are just: “nah…”
Well, better for us. I also have a shitton of good stuff, including half of my clothes (I’m lucky to have size M, so a lot of stuff fits). Second hand stores look weird now: “Whoa, you need to pay for that?”

I do that all the time. A thing is a thing, and it can be your thing now. I only try to ask myself two things:

1. Do I really need that?
2. Is it in a good condition? I have a lot of used stuff at home, so if I took something half-broken, it would look like a dumpster already.

Sidenote: I live in Denmark, where people overconsume, and then get rid of stuff which is still in good condition.

Apart from the encryption, how exactly does it suck?

Sanctus Reach is something I poured a lot of hours in. It’s a classic tabletop-like turn-based game where you pick units for a set number of points.

Would you choose to be driven by waymo, taxi driver, or a bear?

I see it more as anti-muslim. To be racist, the agenda should be about supremacy of one “kind” of people over another, and here we see a cultural/religion clash.

I bought a lot of really nice stuff from both places (and some shitty stuff, but most of the time because I “saved” some time by not reading reviews), and they’re basically same, Temu is just Aliexpress, but little bit more expensive and with warehouses in EU. So I just pay a bit more if I need stuff in a few days, not in few weeks.
In many cases, temu stuff is probably just Ali stuff from resellers.
Anyway, no idea how you find temu and Ali any different

IPS matrix screens were kinda ok even in 2007, when I was selling them, but they had a super shitty reaction time, so everything had quite visible trails. That was the time when a good CRT was still a professional choice. But now, and for the last 10 years or so, IPS became much better, and kept their great color palette, so there are zero reasons to look elsewhere, a standard midrange monitor does the job. And if you want even less trouble, just buy a designer a used imac - that’s an almost complete workplace, and apples retina screens are also IPS. This is what several development (mobile, web) companies I worked in did.
Well, you can go fancy and buy new ones, but the used ones are in abundance - rich mac fanboys switch to every new model that comes out
